Crap! Crap! Crap! Mazda took my air pump for a Turbo!!!

I brought the car to Mazda to lift my car and install my Apex Gt Cat Back. I wanted to test the knowledge of the quy and I asked him to find the turbos on the car.....

He said: One is there (was the airpump...Crap!)

And for the second one I pass... The quy was struggling and shitting everywhere to find it.

Holy Crap of Turbo Pump. LOL!!!

15 years working for Mazda!!!!!

Definitively, Mazda Dealers know nothing about a FD.

The sound of the Apex GT is fantastic!! and the car is a
lot faster. My old baffled HKS dragger was a total piece of Junk! Perhaps it was clocked.

Imagine those who actually brough their car to a mazda dealership to do some repairs ????

I just took out the bike for a little run here... wanted to be sure it was still working....
but so much little rocks on the road that it is insane to go riding.
And it took 1 hour to sold the bike (well the guy is coming back tonigh to be sure it fits ok for miss)

oh ****, never ever let a guy ask his girl...

And, Serge, I can't help but laugh. Even though when you think about it it's not funny.

WTF
Why are all these Serge threads being brought back from the dead?
Funny and scary story nonetheless.

From one old post to another. I thought this was interesting quote from the oil filter thread to bring in here, but I'm not trying to start a fight. I think that while most of us know there are some serious problems with Mazda and many dealerships, there are some good people like the person who made wrote the sentences I've quoted.

Why would I support people who say bad things about us, are negative about our service etc. Our techs are trained to work on stock vehicles and tune to the factory specs. (which all have tolerences) We try are best to make everyone happy and do our best. I am very happy that RX-7 Club.com has been supportive of Scarboro Mazda and will do our best to continue supporting you.

Thats brave taking your car to mazda..
I took my car there once and they said they couldnt do the recalls. They had to get a special guy with 20 yrs experence and in the end they said it was too modified so they couldnt work on it. Mean while I had an intake

AL this was to replce a fuel hose-and they couldnt do it.

Thumbs down

WELL...... I took my 83 FB to a Mazda dealership because I blew an apex seal (or 2) and asked them to diagnose it. The next day they called and said it would cost me $550.00 to have my ignition replaced. NOW let me ask you, WHAT good is THAT going to do an engine that cannot run very good??? I declined drove my car home, pulled my engine, had 4 apex seals that were bad, just reinstalled a brand new one myself, my ignition.... still operates perfectly.
I'll say NO to dealerships.

Meh, Dealerships are always hit or miss. Find one that you trust and stick to them.
